Twitter Q&A: #AskLeiths Your Questions This Friday

On Thursday, hopeful students all over the UK will pick up
their A-level results.

Whilst the typical university route is incredibly valuable
for a huge number of people, it isn't necessarily the best option for everyone,
so it helps to know more about the other forms of higher education that are
available.

The nine month professional diploma at Leiths School of Food
and Wine is one of those alternatives.

If you're considering taking the Leiths Diploma, we'd like
to make sure you have all the information you need to make an informed choice.

The session offers prospective students the chance to ask
questions and have them answered in real time by Camilla Schneideman, the
Managing Director of Leiths.

To take part, all you have to do is tweet a question to @leithscooking
with the hashtag #AskLeiths between 2 and 4pm this Friday. Camilla will respond
directly to you as quickly as possible, to help you in your decision.

Before tweeting, we recommend you look at our detailed
course page by clicking here.

If your interest is piqued, we invite you to book a tour of
the school and your interview by calling 020 8749 6400 or emailing
info@leiths.com.

Look out for us in Friday's issues of the Evening Standard
and Metro. You'll be able to read even more about the course as well as hearing
from Mary Harding, Student of Year 2016, who will share her Leiths journey.

About the diploma

The three term Diploma, starting in the Autumn, comprises of
the Foundation, Intermediate and Advanced Certificates. However, it can also be
achieved in two terms, starting in January, if you have enough knowledge of
cookery, previous culinary training, or sufficient practical experience to omit
the Foundation Term.

“We do not simply train you to be a chef,” says Camilla. “We
focus on training multi-skilled, resourceful culinary professionals; teaching
the classical skills that you'll rely on whilst putting an emphasis on
delicious, unfussy cooking where ingredients come first.

“Our modern approach encompasses world cuisines from
Peruvian to Moroccan and a full complement of culinary techniques.”

A lot is spoken about Yorkshire pudding but is in not such a very difficult thing to do. All it is, is a batter mix that is put in a mould with some oil so that it soufflés up as it bakes. As long as you follow a few simple rules then you should have a perfect pudding every time.

Now a lot of propel say that you need a strong bread flour to make a god batter for Yorkshire puddings but I have found that over time it does not really matter. But if you are going to use a strong flour let it rest for a little longer to allow the glutens to start working and get soaked up in the liquid .

Take you flour and sift it in to a bowel to make sure that you do not get any lumps. Then make a well in the middle and crack your eggs in to that. Now taking a whisk start to work the eggs in to the flour. It will start to from a thick paste. If you think that it is getting to hard to work then ad…
